The Commander of 3rd Army Corps, Colonel-General Grigori Khachaturov has issued a statement in connection with the recent developments around the Chief of the General Staff. 

"The mere fact that over the past three years Pashinyan has appointed and dismissed four militaries with highest military rank to the post of the Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces testifies that Nikol Pashinyan who is holding the post of Armenia's Prime Minister, is inadequate and irresponsible," the statement read. 

"Every day and moment N. Pashinyan occupies the post of the prime minister, the security of Armenia is being disrupted and the future of our motherland remains at risk. Once again, reinstating the February 25 statement of the General Staff, I demand the immediate resignation of Pashinyan," Khachaturov  added.
